Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ⸌ has the Unicode code point U+2E0C. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+2E0C to binary:
00101110 00001100. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100010 10111000 10001100

Description
The character U+2E0C, known as the Left Raised Omission Bracket, is a specialized typographic symbol primarily used in digital text for linguistic purposes. It is part of the Unicode Standard, which provides a consistent encoding system for characters across different languages and platforms. In its typical usage, the Left Raised Omission Bracket is employed to indicate an omitted section or word within a text passage, particularly when quoting or referencing source materials in various languages that use such brackets for this purpose. While its usage may not be as widespread in everyday digital communication, it remains essential in specific contexts such as transcription of non-Latin scripts, legal documentation, or linguistic analysis. This symbol contributes to the accuracy and clarity of text by drawing attention to missing or incomplete content while preserving the overall readability and structure of the document.
